Rather than continue to derail the Neo Geo Pocket Switch thread, I thought this might deserve it's own thread.
The prices of retro stuff have all shot up over the past year as people look to comfortable nostalgia while stuck in side due to COVID (and I've absolutely fallen prey to this bubble, with my particular niche being modding retro handhelds. I've spent hundreds on it).
I've got a 32X on sale for $400 right now. Yeah, it's got Kolibri and Knuckles Chaotix in the lot, but half the value is the system itself with all the hookups. Why would anyone want a 32X at all, much less for that much money?!
I'm curious - what other crazy prices have you seen lately? Honestly I'm kind of fascinated by this whole thing.
